Thanks for the alternate view, Kris. I'm in the middle on this one
myself. First I'm not sure most walkers/joggers appreciate the notice
- anybody done a poll? I've had several on foot (especially
side-by-side people) practically jump off the path, when I was going by
with 3 feet to spare already. It can seem the equivalent of a car
honking as they approach a bike from behind; maybe ok on an empty road
if done far enough back but pretty annoying if everyone does it in
town. I EXPECT cars to be passing me all I care is that they leave a
safe space. And most times on the trail you can pass with as much room
as cars give on the street, so maybe trail users should just get used
to it, serious crash risks are low after all. On the other hand there are times when I feel safer saying something like when: passing bikes who are already near the centerline, or might be about to move over for slower traffic we are closing on, anytime children are involved, anytime pets are involved, whenever I 'm passing with less than arms length.
